Congratulations to violinists Sophie Abrahams-Dematte ('08) and Michiko Takahashi ('08), as well as violist Nicole Perez (pictured, '10), who will perform in the NH All-State Music Festival, April 12 - 14, 2007, hosted by Concord High School. Their auditions for the Festival were in November 2006. The Festival and the audition process are facilitated by the New Hampshire Music Educator's Association (NHMEA), a chapter of the Music Educator's National Conference (MENC).
Our thanks and appreciation are also due to flutists Emmie Gooding and Zoe Ames, as well as violinist Jeremy Gillam, who were not chosen for the Festival. The competition was fierce and the audition process was arduous. Well done, Zoe, Emmie, and Jeremy --- thank you for your hard work, your willingness to be open to constructive criticism through the your preparation and audition processes, and the way in which you carried yourselves and HMS throughout.
Reached for comment after hearing the news, Michiko (a NH All-State veteran, having been chosen for the '06 Festival as well), said "Well, good...at least this year, I'll have some roommates who aren't strangers!"
